Crumbles Patisserie — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I was so excited to spot this place while driving past on Ventura Boulevard. I am always on the lookout for new bakeries and I think the area could definitely use some more! So imagine my delight when my husband surprised me with a selection of some of their treats. Unfortunately, each one was disappointing. The cannoli was pre-filled, and therefore soggy, and it was filled with some cream (not ricotta or cheese-based filling). Maybe it wasn't actually a cannoli? Even so, the filling didn't even go all the way through the tube! The lemon meringue tart was not too exciting—it totally lacked the zing that I usually enjoy from lemon tarts. And the chocolate mousse? Oh my goodness, this was a really shocking texture. It was not light or fluffy at all. It was almost like a gelatinous pudding? Although it is kind of difficult to describe the unexpected texture. We were so bummed!

The caveat is, though, that we did not order a special cake, which seems to be the main draw of Crumbles. I will say all their pastries were beautiful and my husband confirmed that the people in the bakery were super nice. I'm definitely curious about their special-order cakes, but I think it may be a while before I give this place...

I absolutely love this bakery! They offer the most stunning and delicious pastries, and their espresso bar is top-notch. I had an iced latte that was smooth, strong, and full of flavor. The cafe itself is spotless and incredibly inviting—it feels like stepping into a royal tea party every time I visit. It’s the perfect blend of a French bakery and an art gallery, with pastries that not only taste amazing but look like works of art. I often give them as gifts to my clients, and they’re always impressed. The staff here are friendly and helpful, adding to the wonderful experience. Stop by and support this local gem—it’s definitely worth...

I’ve been ordering here since 3 years ago at least 4 times and before the last time, i would say 5 star was fairly enough, but unfortunately this time was so much different. The cake that we got had different color than what we ordered. Any way it wasn’t a big deal for us until we got the cake and start driving. At the first 5 min the cake started to get cracking. It was still so soft and the mini mouse head was heavier than the base could support. My wife kept it safely but still at the end it was embarrassing. When we opened the cake, the 3 layers were not even matching in center. It seems that the quality is dropping compared to...
